cat and grep not working
I am trying to cat a file and then grep that file for a number. I can do it fine on other files but this particular file will not do anything. I tried running it on an older file from the same device but it is just not working. The file is nothing more than a flat file on a unix box. Here is just a excerpt from the file:

sip_create_response

sip_create_response(3SIP)			   Session Initiation Protocol Library Functions			 sip_create_response(3SIP)

NAME

       sip_create_response - create a response for a SIP request

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsip [ library ... ]
       #include <sip.h>

       sip_msg_t sip_create_response(sip_msg_t sip_request,
	    int response_code, char *response_phase,
	    char *totag, char *contact_uri);

DESCRIPTION

       The  sip_create_response()  function creates and returns a SIP message in response to the SIP request sip_request. The response line in the
       resulting SIP message is created using the response code in response_code and the phrase in response_phrase. The response line has the SIP-
       Version	of  "2.0".  If	a non-null totag is specified, the resulting SIP response has a TO header with a tag value from totag. If totag is
       null and the response_code is anything other than 100 (TRYING), sip_create_response() adds a TO header with a randomly generated tag value.
       If the response_code is 100 and totag is null, the SIP response has a TO header without a tag parameter. If contact_uri is non-null, a CON-
       TACT header is added to the SIP response with the URI specified in contact_uri. The SIP response has  the  following  headers  copied  from
       sip_request:
	 All VIA headers
	 FROM header
	 TO header (with tag added, if required, as stated above)
	 CALL-ID header
	 CSEQ header
	 All RECORD-ROUTE headers

RETURN VALUES

       The sip_create_response() function returns the resulting SIP message on success and NULL on failure.

       The value of errno is not changed by these calls in the event of an error.
